It would probably be easier if you just downloaded Rom Manager from the market and installed it through there..It will install clockwork or Amon RA recovery.

Gotcha..You can find instructions on how to flash a recovery manually in the topic below..

You are installing a .img file and not a .zip. That is why recovery isn't finding the file. Try this:

Copy psfMod-supersonic-0.9.7.2.img to a location where fastboot can find it.
Boot your phone into fastboot mode
fastboot devices(press enter) (to make sure that fastboot "sees" your phone)
fastboot flash psfMod-supersonic-0.9.7.2.img(press enter)

Re: htc evo ps3jailbrake???

i personally have it on my phone and the easiest and fastest way is to use UNREVOKED. use the custom image option and your done. that easy. works every time for me flawlessly.
be sure which psfmod image you use as well because one turns your phone into a device where you can downgrade your ps3 from 3.50 to 3.41. if you are already on 3.55 then stop because there is no way to downgrade from 3.55...... yet

all other images make or turn your phone into a jailbreaking device so just pay attention and read. everything is reversible with your evo but just trying to save you some aggravation, time and trouble shooting

Thanks as well. Quick question wouldn't the location be the root of your sdcard?
And fastboot is in the boot loader menu am i correct?

Re: htc evo ps3jailbrake???

Seems you could just rename it to PC36IMG.img and just reboot.
